TIPS ON FINDING A TRUSTWORTHY REALTOR Travis White Newport Beach Realtor
When buying a new home, chances are very good that you are going to choose a realtor to help you with your home buying needs. With many realtors out there, finding one you can trust may seem to be a daunting task.
Especially if you've never hired a realtor before, or if you've ever had one whom you couldn't trust, choosing a good realtor may be extremely difficult if next to impossible, to accomplish. So how do you find one whom you can trust and one who will simplify your home buying experience? Here are a few tips by Travis White Newport Beach Realtor to help you find the right realtor.
Conduct Interviews • It's not enough to open the yellow pages and scan the listings of realtors there. Ideally, going to the realtor's office is the best option, but you may not have the time to do this. Chances are there will be too many realtors for you to go visit, so you may choose to interview on the phone.
Be prepared with a list of questions to ask, and expect frank and honest answers. It won't take long for you to find out during the conversation whether the realtor is honest, or if they are simply a salesperson who evades your questions by giving you pat answers, or fluff.
Ask for References • A good realtor will be happy to give you the names of satisfied customers, to back up how trustworthy they will be for you. Sometimes, many people will find realtors on word of mouth alone. Happy customers will be delighted to talk to you about your potential realtor, and many times, this will arm you with the best information about the realtor you are considering.
Talk to the Broker • In some cases, talking opening with the broker about your realtor's performance may give you clues as to how trustworthy your realtor might be.
This may not always give you the best information, as the broker certainly wants your business in the same way the realtor does, but a broker who is willing to talk with you as a potential client may help you determine whether the company the realtor works for will be behind you all the way.
Express Your Needs • A realtor isn't a mind reader, and it is up to you to make sure your realtor knows exactly what you are looking for. If you are not sure what you are looking for, then it is in your best interest to find a realtor truly interested in narrowing down what you want. Ask questions.
If you don't know whether a school district in a particular area is a good one, for example, and you don't have children, then it is the realtor's job to help you understand that even though you might not be concerned about schools right now, there is a possibility in the future that it will be an issue. And while you cannot expect your realtor to read your mind, a good, trustworthy realtor can still anticipate your needs.
From Newport Beach, Travis White Realtor says the key to finding a trustworthy Realtor is to ask questions, no matter how silly they might be to you.
They should be familiar with school districts, utility company policies, which Cable Company is available to you, and other things that are not necessarily part of your home purchase, but it is these little things that make a realtor extraordinary, and one that you can trust to help you find the perfect home.
